Chapter 55: Isn't it a word game?
The fake Lin Jiu looked at the figure lying on the bed with seven parts of disbelief and three parts of confusion.
He was almost amused by Lin Jiu.
Okay.
Who told you to be so awesome?
The fake Lin Jiu smiled silently and shook his head slightly. He stood up, patted the non-existent dust on his body, and raised his hand to snap his fingers lightly.
With a "click", the bedroom light was turned off with the sound of a crisp snap of fingers.
Lin Jiu's voice rang out in the pitch-black environment.
"You're so good at pretending."
Fake Lin Jiu: ...
"What's wrong with men liking to show off?" said the fake Lin Jiu righteously.
Lin Jiu just hummed a few times and said nothing.
His expression at the moment was somewhat meaningful, but the fake Lin Jiu ignored it. Instead, he walked forward, lifted the quilt and crawled in without any hesitation.
Lin Jiu did not respond because he was going to sleep.
Although Lin Jiu usually fell asleep after midnight, he rarely stayed up so late.
A habit formed over several years cannot be changed all at once. Lin Jiu even felt a little guilty for going to bed so late.
Speaking of which...
Doctor Zhang, you should be watching the live broadcast too...
Although the good image has long been gone, I still hope to retain it a little bit...
As Lin Jiu thought about it, he gradually fell into a light sleep.
The fake Lin Jiu sleeping next to him was more upright than Lin Jiu. He had his eyes closed, and it was unclear whether he was really asleep or just pretending to be asleep.
Having said that.
Weird....
Need sleep?
This issue did not cause much stir. When the audience in the live broadcast room saw that Lin Jiu had quieted down, they left the room and prepared to check on the situation of other players.
Of course, some people take out another device of their own and watch several live broadcast rooms at the same time.
When Lin Jiu experienced strange events in the bathroom, the global bulletin sounded several times. After the night passed, it seemed that things had really become dangerous as the fake Lin Jiu said.
Most of the players went into the bedroom after dark, and when the red light came in, all the players ran into the bedroom.
Everyone remembers how the Sakura Country player was eliminated in the first game.
Players who enter the bedroom are also faced with a choice.
[Three: Please turn off the lights when you go to bed at night, and remember to turn on the lights when you wake up in the morning]
Of course you should turn off the lights when you go to bed at night. — Most people think so.
But in the world of ghost stories, this point is singled out and written into the additional rules, so players will inevitably hesitate about whether to turn on or off the lights when sleeping at night.
Turn off the lights and go to sleep, fearing something might happen;
Sleeping with the lights on may make me feel a little more at ease, but I'm afraid of breaking the rules.
After a few games, everyone gradually understood some things in the dungeon world.
For example, to the monsters, human daytime is equivalent to night, but they will also move around outside and often appear in the form of humans; and human night is "daytime" to the monsters. The monsters during this time period will become stronger and very active, and often appear in a weird state.
From this perspective, there is a high probability that this rule is correct.
Soon, players began to make their choices.
In addition to players who choose to sleep with the lights off or with the lights on, there are also players who simply choose not to sleep.
The word game made them understand.
As the players lay down on the bed one by one, the live broadcast rooms also became quiet.
The danger that had been lurking in the dark gradually emerged.
The first players to encounter danger were from the Korean country.
This time, the Korean contestant was a little better than the previous two contestants. At least he kept a low profile throughout the whole process and tried his best to avoid any communication with the weirdos.
The Korean contestant who seems to be unlikely to be eliminated anytime soon is named Jin Caiyi. He looks about the same age as Lin Jiu and looks very quiet. However, compared to Lin Jiu, he has a very low sense of presence.
Perhaps it is because of this that, from the beginning of the game to now, there are very few weird people who take the initiative to talk to Jin Caiyi.
Jin Caiyi seemed to realize this as well, and would not speak if possible.
After finishing dinner and throwing away the garbage, Jin Caiyi hid in the bedroom. He stayed in bed until night, either sitting or lying down.
Faced with the problem of turning on and off the lights, Jin Caiyi thought about it for a long time and finally chose to turn off the lights and go to sleep.
As the third Korean contestant, Kim Caiyi is under a lot of pressure. After all, the two eliminated contestants are still being scolded, and even their families are not spared.
Jin Caiyi was not afraid of being scolded. After all, as a nobody in school, he was often chosen as the target of bullying and was used to being scolded.
But only my family...
Oh, his family doesn’t like him either, that doesn’t matter.
Despite having such thoughts, Jin Caiyi was still very nervous and scared.
After all, even a low-level copy world is terrifying enough to make people shudder. It is difficult for ordinary people to say that they are not afraid of death.
It would be fine if you said you would die, but it would be better if you died facing such a horrible thing.
Even more scared.
Jin Caiyi quietly hid in the quilt, trying to let the quilt protect her weak and helpless self.
Because he was too nervous and couldn't control his wandering thoughts, Jin Caiyi didn't fall asleep. He clenched his cold hands and breathed heavily, which was quite noticeable in the quiet environment.
Of course, there was no obvious sound of a sudden door opening.
"Click", Jin Caiyi didn't react when the sound of the door opening was heard. Now there was a sound that seemed to be the door closing. Jin Caiyi stared with his eyes and subconsciously held his breath.
After this crisp sound, the bedroom returned to silence again.
Jin Caiyi covered his mouth and nose, still not daring to breathe.
I don’t know how long it took, but suddenly the sound of “pat pat pat” footsteps was heard.
Judging from the sound, it seems like someone is barefoot, and there is also the sound of water, which makes people inexplicably think of a water ghost.
The number of viewers in the live broadcast room of Korea is also increasing.
The camera of the live broadcast room was in the corner, so the audience could clearly see that from opening the door to turning off the lights, to the sound of footsteps, there was nothing strange happening from beginning to end.
Just like during the day, there were only sounds.
What was slightly different was that along with the sound of footsteps, there was indeed a trail of wet footprints moving from the door towards the bed.
The large ball on the bed was shaking slightly. The footsteps had stopped, and the wet footprints also stopped at the edge of the bed.
There was another silence.
Jin Caiyi didn't move at all and had no intention of coming out of the bed.
After an unknown amount of time, a sharp and piercing female voice rang out.
"Hey Jin Caiyi! Who told you to sleep here?"
The sound was so sudden that the audience in the live broadcast room who had been staring at the screen nervously were all startled.
Jin Caiyi was also frightened.
